A brilliant novel about money and love and betting everything on a single throw - from the Booker-shortlisted author of All That Man Is
James and Katherine meet at a wedding in London in 2006, towards the end of the money-for-nothing years. James is a man with a varied past now living alone in a flat in Bloomsbury; Katherine is separated from her husband and working in an interim job in a luxury hotel.
They exchange phone numbers at the wedding, but from then on not much goes according to the script...
'A writer with the whole range of talents' Sunday Times
'Devastatingly powerful... extremely funny, in that understated, unexpected way' Independent on Sunday
'A sharp, truthful, funny portrait of contemporary manners that is also unexpectedly moving' The Times
